Leo's Answers Hello! *** Contents
*** This Week's New Articles on Ask Leo! Why am I getting password reset mails for my Hotmail account?
Yes, while it's definitely not a good thing to leave your password unchanged for years at a time, I also know that changing it often is a pain. I'm as guilty as you are when it comes to my Hotmail account. Unsolicited password requests aren't a good thing. The question is just how bad a thing are they? The answer varies. Continue reading:
"Why am I getting password reset mails for my Hotmail account?" * * * Should I convert my FAT32 drives to NTFS?
I tend to prefer NTFS over FAT32, though that even represents a change for me in recent years. There are a couple of reasons I've come to prefer NTFS, but I can tell you one thing: Windows native encryption is not one of them. Continue reading: "Should I
convert my FAT32 drives to NTFS?" * * * Do I still need anti-virus software if my computer came with a security suite?
There are several reasons that people might choose to purchase an anti-virus product. The most obvious is that not everyone gets a security suite for free. But even then, there are still reasons why people might elect to use a different solution, even paying money to do so. Continue reading:

suite?" * * * What does "check system fan" mean?
Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to be curt, but the message means exactly what it says: you need to check the fan in your system. What fan? What's a fan? Which fan? And why? Fair enough, let's review one of the most under-appreciated components of your system. Continue reading: "What does "check
system fan" mean?" * * * Is it safe to delete duplicate files?
I'm probably going to get some flack for this one, but my answer is a very strong NO. Let me explain why. Continue reading: "Is it safe to

SOFTWARE Advertisement. Ask Leo about advertising here. *** Popular Articles from the Archives This is one I end up pointing people to very often. If you have an ethernet adapter in your computer you can use is as a fast way to connect two machines together to transfer files. Can I network two computers with just a cable? Yes. BUT ... it's easy to get it wrong unless you know a couple of tricks. But once it's working, it's a very quick and handy way to transfer files and share an internet connection among just two machines. Read more... Can I
network two computers with just a cable? *** Thoughts and Comments Most of this week, I wasn't really here. :-) I had to step out of the day-to-day for some minor surgery (I'm totally fine, thanks) and decided that not working for a few days was probably a good thing prepare for. But I didn't want it to look that way. That's the joy of computers and automated processes. Except for Thursday's, this weeks articles were all written last week. I just used software (imagine that!) to automatically publish something every day. Turns out I didn't really need to - things went better than planned - so I used the "time off" from Ask Leo! to make significant progress for one of my clients who's in the middle of moving several websites to a new server. The Seattle area weather has also cooperated nicely allowing me to do all that from the back patio. So, from a (finally!) warm and sunny Pacific Nortwest... 'till next time...
